Los Angeles is a city that rarely looks back. Yet scattered across it are places that have endured, remaining in use while the city around them has been rebuilt and reimagined.
How To Find Old Los Angeles is a guide to 45 such places: bars, diners, restaurants, shops, and long-established institutions that continue to operate much as they always have, serving locals and visitors side by side.
These are not landmarks set apart from everyday life. They are working places where you can order a whiskey or a root beer float, a taco or a burger, or step in off the street to take care of ordinary business. This guide offers an entry point into a Los Angeles of an earlier era, one that remains accessible, and that will last only for as long as people continue to use it.
Third-generation Angeleno Kim Cooper is a passionate advocate for the preservation of historic signage and vernacular architecture. She runs Esotouric crime bus tours and is the author of The Raymond Chandler Map of Los Angeles, also published by Herb Lester Associates.
